CC Case Studies
May 6
Creative Commons kicks off global case studies effort. Share your story. Discover new works and new models.
With upwards of 150 million CC-licensed works published from every corner of the world, no single use case can tell the whole story. Creators and users come to CC for different reasons, and for many, CC solves different problems. We’re trying to capture the diversity of CC creators and content and build a resource that inspires new works and informs free culture.
Today we're kicking off Creative Commons Case Studies 2009 – and we want to hear your story! We’re collecting cases big and small on our re-launched Case Studies wiki, an online portal to upload and discover documentation about CC-licensed projects.
The top user-submitted stories will be featured on our website and in the next printed volume of Creative Commons Case Studies. You'll also collaborate with our CEO, Joi Ito, whose doctoral work focuses on select case studies from CC and the sharing economy.
